Beloved Guide, Dear brothers
and sisters
Service is the chief instrument
in spiritual life, with out which there will
be no progress in spiritual life. They can be
broadly classified into three categories such
as manual , intellectual and spiritual.
In fact service sector is the
main sector which controls and dictates most
of the economy of every country.
Pujya Babuji Maharaj puts it
in the chapter constant remembrance of reality
at dawn “Service and Sacrifice are the
two main instruments with which we build the
temple of spirituality, love of course being
the fundamental basis. Any kind of service,
if done selflessly, is helpful. Service to fellow
being is service to God in the real sense, if
it is not done out of any selfish motive. What
ever we do in our daily routine of work, is
in relation with some of our fellow beings,
be they our children, friends or relations.
If we think that while doing a work we are really
serving one or the other of the God’s
creatures and not our own purpose, we are all
along following the path of service, although
we are out worldly busy with our usual routine
of work. Almost all our activities in life are
connected with providing means of livelihood
for our children and dear ones. So, if we treat
them as children of God, who are entrusted to
our care and whom we have to provide for and
look after as if duty bound, we are then serving
His children, and there by God Himself. We shall
there by get rid of undue attachment too and
shall thus remove one of the greatest obstacles
from our path”.
The process, though easy and
simple will lead you also to constant thought
of the Supreme MASTER in all your activities.
If this thing gets rooted deep in your heart,
every action of yours will then seem to be a
duty mearly for duty’s sake, in accordance
with the Divine dictate with out any selfish,
interest or personal attachment. Universal love,
then becomes predominant and we begin love every
being of the Gods creation with out any feeling
of attachment with it. It leads us to devotion
and sacrifice”(DR 87, 88).
People are groping in darkness
with mire of undue attachment with wealth, wife
and son (Dhaneshana, Dhareshana and Putreshana)
Though not impossible it is
very difficult even to control eshanatrayas
those who are not spiritual in real sense. If
we connect the thought of Supreme MASTER in
all our activities every action of ours will
become duty for duty sake. There by we will
be free from all worldly entanglements and we
can better serve all our fellow beings duly
thinking them as our own with out being prey
for eshanatrayas.
Out of all services spiritual
service is superior. In his letter dated 23rd
March 1955 to Dr.K.C.V. Rev Babuji Stated “When
my MASTER made me his representative, he demanded
guru dakshina from me which is prevalent among
Hindus form the time immemorial so as to spread
spiritualism throughout ………..
I solemnly affirmed that through out my life
I shall devote myself for this sort of service.
As such all my spiritual energy is secured for
the service of you all ……….
So if anybody comes to me for the spiritual
service I think myself indebted to him. I do
not stand as a guru to impart training but as
a servant of humanity”.
‘Eakoham Bahushyami’
one becomes many. At the time of creation Divinity
has sacrificed itself through manifestation
and came down to this planet to serve his subjects
and see that they are happy.
Master puts it Divine love
as “We see everything tending towards
the center, and the center itself yawning towards
the circumference. After our adventure, we initiated
the vale of our existence and felt the co-operation
of the highest power that is around us. Now
this was the main current of our thinking which
diverted our attention to the main theme that
is being played. Gradually we could know the
function of the movement in the human body.
The way is made open to lead up to the central
region”.(Sruthi P-247)
Service carries with it a
sense of worship, and we should be as busy with
it as we are with our daily routine of life.
For cultivating the habit of selfless service,
the easiest method is to think everything we
do as the order of God and treat it as our duty.
Meditation on point ‘A’ and point
‘B’ regularly as prescribed promotes
universal brotherhood in us and ultimately leads
us towards selfless service.
Offering of universal prayer
as prescribed by Babuji regularly at 9 p.m by
all the abhyasis creates enormous power in the
entire cosmos to bestow peace to the people
around the globe, which is a Maha Yagna performed
by us for the benefit of others with out any
self.
Pujya Babuji’s letter
to UNO on World peace and universal love he
suggested a method that “Let us all brothers
and sisters sit daily at fixed hour individually
at our respective places and meditate for about
an hour thinking that all people of the world
are growing peace loving and pious.
This process, suggested not
with exclusively spiritual motives, is highly
efficacious in bringing about the desired result
and weaving a destiny of the miserable millions.”
(Event Horizon P-110-111).
Through the system of Pranahuthi
Aided Meditation (PAM) Babuji aimed at the total
transformation of man form animality to humanity
and from humanity to Divinity. For this the
chief instrument he is using is “Pranahuthi”
which is an un adultrated energy of Yogi working
through pure mind.
For spiritual service purity
of mind is essential. How to acquire purity
of mind?
1. By cleaning impurities of Mala, Vikshepa
and Avarana by assiduously practicing cleaning
methods prescribed.
2. Mediation on point ‘A’ and point
‘B’ as per procedure. The two meditations
on point ‘A’ and point ‘B’
are very helpful in curing the disturbed tendencies
of mind.
3. Whole hearted devotedness to the service
of the Master with love keeps the mind pure.
“We should maintain
our selves at the height and pitch of our real
status. We should not allow our selves to drop
to lower levels of existence, corrupted by bestiality,
jealousy, envy, avarice and greed. We are to
be always attentive to the MASTER and never
miss an opportunity for service trying to come
up to His expectations by accepting the work
whole heartedly”.
Finally I conclude with an
opinion that purity in thought and serenity
in action is a must for self less service. For
that we must whole heartedly dedicate every
action to the MASTER with real faith, true love
and devotion. Every one of us shall do the practice
of PAM assiduously without any exception. Taking
doses of Pranahuthi from our trainers regularly
helps us in purging out most of the impurities
and promotes purity in thought and action.
Trying to live according to
the commandments of the Master and practicing
them to the maximum possible extent in daily
life develops in us most of the noble qualities
like service, sharing, sacrifice, cooperation
etc, true love devotion and real faith for the
Master. When we grow out of our self we think
about the welfare of others i.e., Parasukha
and Parahita. Then only we can better extend
our services with fraternal obligation without
any selfish motto or pride of any doer ship
behind it. |
